Anyone who has tried to cycle through central London will know that bikes and cars are not friends.

But the competitors in the Arctic Race of Norway had something a little more worrying than your average car to deal with when they were joined by an unusual guest.

As they passed by an army base, the peleton suddenly had a new member: a Leopard 2A4 tank.

After riding alongside the racers for a short while, the tank ominously veered off to the side like a James Bond villain who knows a shortcut.
